Stafanie Roxann Taylor OD (born 11 June 1991) is a Jamaican cricketer who is a former captain of the West Indies women's cricket team.[1] She has represented them over 250 times since her debut in 2008. A right-handed batter and off break bowler, Taylor was selected as the 2011 ICC Women's Cricketer of the Year – the first West Indian to receive the accolade. She was also the first woman to score 1,000 runs in ODIs for the West Indies.[2] She plays domestic cricket for Jamaica and Guyana Amazon Warriors and has previously played for Auckland, Sydney Thunder, Adelaide Strikers, Western Storm, Southern Vipers, Southern Brave and Trailblazers.[3]
Born in Jamaica, Taylor broke into the West Indies team in 2008, aged 17, and immediately inserted herself as a key member of the team. She scored her highest Twenty20 total on debut, striking 90 runs from 49 balls to help her side to a large victory. In the 2016 World Twenty20, she was the highest run-scorer and named player of the tournament.
She played in her 100th Women's One Day International (WODI) match, when the West Indies played India in the group stage of the 2017 Women's Cricket World Cup, on 29 June 2017.[4] On 18 September 2019, during the series against Australia, Taylor played in her 100th Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) match.[5] On 24 September 2020, in the second match against England, Taylor became the second cricketer to score 3,000 runs in WT20I cricket.[6]
